Do you mean the carpet brush head, or the bonnet head? I would think that the bonnet head would be used. But I believe I read elsewhere that the 360i does not have enough weight on it to work as well as 175rpm machine, or any of the other types.

There is a a small 13 head from rotovac, Honestly it is noy heavy enough, But yes it will work.

Yes it will, But as said weight .. The 360i is more of a all in one tool... Great tool , encap maybe not the best...

What if I weighed it down???? Strap a 10 or 15 lb weight to the 360i???

Dont laugh....just thinking outside the box

Brad, you wouldn't need the weight. Just pre vac, prespray then encap the
360 or v360i with the bonnet pad and a grey cleaning pad will work just fine.

Like I mentioned before not heavy enough ,but it will work like nick said, a 175,orbot/OP, and cimex are heavy and this has been the standard , No short cuts please. There's a reason these manufacturers make them heavy
